Here are your ECMA winners!

Triumphant!

There were so many winners they had to trickle in slowly to avoid a flood of exclamatory golden treble clefs, but trickle in they did—here's a complete list of the lucky recipients from this year's East Coast Music Week gala.

Stray thoughts:
1) Good to see Seamus O'Regan doing things.
2) The award for best award name goes to "Stompin’ Tom Award sponsored by TD Wealth and PEI Potatoes"
3) If you thought PEI was far away, get ready for next year: St. John's, Newfoundland, baby. Save me some fries and dressing.
